Chapter 395: Courage Trial

Before Ebner could take a look around after the "flight" entered the whirlpool, he suddenly saw a gorgeous temple made of huge crystals.

The temple was in deep darkness, and there seemed to be something terrifying brewing outside the exaggerated dome supported by the huge pillars that made people feel furious at first glance.

"Strange...... In addition to 'darkness', there seems to be a similar feeling to the Necronomicon...... Could that 'god of luck' eat some other strange traits? ”

Abner muttered a few words, then glanced left and right, and found that Laticia and her companions were all gone, and after a little thought, he had a guess: the trials in this temple were conducted separately, and I was afraid that all the trials would have to be completed before he could join the two "inquisitors".

Of course, after the "convergence", most of the time there will be a war immediately......

He took a silent breath and slowly pushed open the hidden door in front of him and entered the Crystal Temple.

Upon entering the temple, the first thing that catches Abner's eye is a deep corridor with no end in sight.

On one side of the gallery, the walls are inlaid with many glowing crystals, reflecting the whole corridor like a small sun, while on the other side are depicted colorful and lifelike murals, which are connected to each other without leaving gaps, like continuous films, telling ancient stories.

"Isn't it true that the extraordinary people of the 'monster' path love to draw? So it was with Ulorius, and so it was with this 'god of luck'...... Well, although his 'ingredients' are relatively mixed, the highest-ranking characteristic of fusion is 'prophet', which can be regarded as the 'ancestral craft' of the path......"

Abner complained and took a closer look at the frescoes, and to his surprise, they were not about the history of the elves, but about the past of the "god of luck" himself.

He has been a "prophet" since he had consciousness, relying on the favor of "fate" to constantly avoid powerful monsters in the desolate land, and at the same time hunt monsters that seem to be similar to his own abilities to strengthen himself.

During this period, even if he was "lucky" enough, he inevitably fell into madness repeatedly, and even almost stepped into the trap of the enemy because of it.

This situation lasted until he met the "Elven King" Sunia Solem and learned from him the importance of "faith".

Next, he was subdued by Sunia Solem and became the slave god of the other party, helping him test the elves, cultivate his people, and fight everywhere until the "ancient sun god" awakened.

He "foresaw" the inevitable defeat of Sunia Solem and persuaded him to follow the example of Helabergen and submit to the "sun god", who only needed his uniqueness and identity, and had the means to separate, and would not want his life.

Sunia Sorem did not agree, but only gave an item to his queen, the "Queen of the Scourge", to give her a chance to take it to the Western Continent in the future, emphasizing that it contained the key to his "return" and could not be easily opened before arriving in the Western Continent. Then he ordered the "God of Luck" and the "Queen of the Scourge" to break through the encirclement and escape from the royal court.

……

As Abner walked to the end of the corridor, the scene in front of him came to an abrupt end.

Although these are only murals, if you look at them, you will have the illusion of a "historical picture" unfolding in front of your eyes, and you can accurately convey the meaning of the contents of the paintings.

"Send back to the Western Continent...... It's about the 'return' of the 'Elf King'......

"Speaking of which, in the original book, the 'Queen of the Scourge' Gosinham made a deal with Mr. 'The Hanged Man' was to send an inconspicuous item from the Book of Scourge to the Western Continent after becoming a 'demigod'......

"And it was precisely because of his own development of this branch that Alger was not 'knifed' by Lord Squid.

"So what could it be?

"Hmm...... There are few characteristics on the western continent, but there are many 'essentia'...... And the only one who has the ability to make the Elf King 'return' is probably a certain 'essentia' power.

"The 'Elven King' is an ancient god, and in addition to the main 'tyrant' path, he most likely also actively accommodates the characteristics of the authority related to the 'catastrophe', and even the uniqueness......

"And it can be seen on the mural just now that the appearance of the elf king is actually quite good...... It's not going to be a Sequence 1 or uniqueness that blends witches, right?

"Well, considering that he still has a queen, I'm afraid he also has the 'conqueror' trait......

"To sum up, the Chaos Sea does not think about it...... Could he have made some kind of secret connection to the City of Calamity at the end of the Second Age?

"Some of the characteristics of the Red Angel, even its uniqueness, are likely to come from Him, which is why Bansey Harbor was later mutated? And then that one made the Red Angel make the 'necessary sacrifice'? ”

Abner thought a lot for a while, and he stopped at the end of the corridor for a while, until the crystal "lamp" in the corridor gradually dimmed, and then he came to his senses and pushed open an open door at the end.

At the same time, he decided to show the murals here to the other members at the next tarot meeting, firstly, to enrich everyone's knowledge, and secondly, to give a preventive shot to the "fool" and the "hanged man", so as not to fall into the calculations of others.

……

At the same time, the adventurer Latisia also walked through the corridor, but she was a little puzzled in her heart: "Why is the mural of the 'Temple of Trials' all about the Elven Queen's 'Queen of the Scourge'?" ”

……

It was pitch black behind the open door, and it was so dark that even Abner, who had the ability to "see at night", could barely see a meter or two in front of him.

As soon as he stepped into the darkness, the door behind him "creaked" and closed on its own.

"This kind of environment really looks like a scene from a horror movie...... Shouldn't there be a zombie or other monster at this time? ”

Just as Abner was complaining, a fishy smell suddenly came from his left side, and then a face uglier than the "bell ringer" appeared in his "dark vision", and his grinning mouth was wide open, revealing blood-colored sharp teeth, and pounced at great speed.

"Really?" In this regard, Abner was not alarmed, this was already within his calculations, and when he saw the monster coming, the black and red flames that had been condensed around him suddenly shot out and fell on the monster.

The monster screamed at the two flames, but it didn't hesitate to pounce on Abner and bite it off, and then it snapped out a tooth.

At this time, it could no longer resist the scorching of the two flames, and its movements began to slow down.

After a while, putting away the "phantom scales", "dragon scales", and "living corpse skin", Abner looked at the monster that had been burned from the inside out, from matter to spirit, and muttered for a few seconds, deliberately thinking of a kind of resentment from the previous life in his mind.

Soon, his back suddenly became cold, and a woman in white crawled out of a well from nowhere, but before she could make a move, she was hit in the face by more than a dozen "black flames" and dissipated on the spot.

Actually, the ability to simulate the "Sun" or "Warrior" path is more effective, but considering that this is a temple of elves, using the "Ancient Sun God's" signature ability may cause a less favorable change...... And the "warrior" is similar, the "Giant King" once betrayed the Alliance of the Ancient Gods, and the "Elf King" series is not very good with it.

While thinking so in his heart, Abner's test of this level is also roughly counted:

The dark environment can manifest the "fear" of the heart and attack the trialist...... Therefore, as long as you are "fearless" in your heart and avoid thinking nonsense, you should be able to clear the customs smoothly......

This is indeed a test of "courage", after all, only those who are still brave in this extreme darkness can stay calm and intimidate their own thoughts.

On the other hand, if you are afraid in your heart before the trial, let alone calm analysis at this time, I am afraid that you will already be full of monsters!

Hehe, it seems that the original trial must have had an advantage in the elves with a "background"! After all, having a background means having more hole cards, and having to rely on is naturally easier to be "brave...... And ordinary elves, even if they get the opportunity to test, eighty percent are trembling......

Thinking of this, Abner, who also has "reliance", even had a playful heart, while walking along the stone road, while entering the state of "mechanical mind" to control his thoughts, creating all kinds of monsters that do not exceed his own ability to test his ability and hone his "technology......

After a while, just as he was about to upgrade a wave of monster "attributes", the stone path under his feet, which seemed to have no end no matter how he walked, suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a bright gate.

I'm also going to "develop" a few more combinations of abilities...... Sighing, Abner, who knew he couldn't take advantage of it anymore, pushed open the door and came to a long corridor again.

And the layout of this promenade is exactly the same as the previous one, with continuous murals painted on one side.

The mural here continues the promenade in front of it, starting with the "God of Luck" and the "Queen of the Scourge" breaking through the encirclement and escaping to the sea to hide everywhere.

Then, due to the destruction of the Elven Court, the originally oppressed humans became the "protagonists" and occupied the vast majority of the land, which caused the population of the Elven race to plummet, and at the same time, the "faith" was no longer stable.

Both the "God of Fortune" and the "Queen of the Calamity" soon went into trouble and often went insane, until the former finally judged that the self-professed omniscient and all-powerful being had a safe and reliable way to ascend by observing the angels under the seat of the "Ancient Sun God" and perceiving certain patterns in their feeding properties!

Through various comparisons, the "God of Luck" finally "lucky" experimented with the order of taking the characteristics of some sequences, and mastered a way to safely discharge the "characteristics", and began to help himself and the "Queen of the Scourge" separate the superfluous and conflicting characteristics.

In the process, they were discovered by the angels under the constellation of the "Sun God", and they had to flee while expelling their characteristics.

The God of Fortune gave a deep-sea monster the "Prophet" trait that he first discharged, luring away some of his enemies......

……

At the same time, Latisia on another corridor saw a picture of the "Queen of the Scourge" expelling a superfluous Sequence 3 "Sea King" trait and giving it to a sea serpent, and with the blessing of "luck", the sea serpent successfully fused the traits and gave birth to simple wisdom, calling itself "Kavituva".
